Sega Reveals Potential Release Dates for Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven: April 2026 and Beyond

A recent report from Sega has revealed that two highly anticipated titles, Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven, may not be released before April 2026. This news has left fans of the two games, developed by Atlus and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio respectively, feeling disappointed.

Both Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven were featured during the week of Summer Game Fest 2025. Persona 4 Revival is a remake in the same vein as Persona 3 Reload, which was originally announced during the Xbox Games Showcase 2025. Stranger Than Heaven, on the other hand, was initially unveiled as Project Century during The Game Awards 2024 and then revealed with the official name during Summer Game Fest 2025.

According to a fiscal report from Sega, spotted by Shuinobi602, neither of these games will be released before April 2026. In a picture of the report, it’s possible to see some games being published by Sega, and Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven appear as “announced titles to be released in or after FY2027.” The Japanese 2027 fiscal year lasts from April 2026 to March 2027, so this means that these games could be launched from April 2026 onwards. However, it’s still a vague release window, and these titles could still be delayed.

To get an idea of what features Persona 4 Revival could have, it might be a good idea to look back at what Persona 3 Reload did. While not much is currently known about Stranger Than Heaven, most of the information gamers currently have about it comes from the two trailers it has already received, one set in 1915 and the other in 1943. The title, which will be set in Japan, will likely span multiple years, and some gamers have already discovered indications that the story could take place in 1929 as well.

It's important to keep in mind that plans can change and these projects may still be delayed. The information is consistent with previous rumors that have already indicated that Persona 4 Revival could be out in the second half of 2026. However, for Stranger Than Heaven, time will tell whether it will be out in 2026 or not, considering even in the official reports it appears "to be released in or after FY2027."

Despite the delay, fans of both games are eagerly awaiting their release and hope that they will be able to play them soon.
